STM joins the Coalition for Diversity & Inclusion in Scholarly Communications (C4DISC)

STM has signed on as a member of the Coalition for Diversity & Inclusion in Scholarly Communications (C4DISC), joining other influential organisations to work towards a more diverse scholarly publishing industry.

C4DISC believes in valuing the skills and viewpoints of professionals from diverse backgrounds who have historically had less representation in scholarly communications. This approach sparks innovation, supports sustainability and produces research that better serves diverse academic communities — which complements STM’s current work in the social responsibility realm.

“C4DISC’s mission closely aligns with STM’s work in social responsibility, which seeks to create a more equitable, inclusive and sustainable world while advancing trusted research,” STM CEO Caroline Sutton said. “We have already been working to support our members in prioritising diversity, inclusion and accessibility and meeting the SDGs. We look forward to collaborating with C4DISC and its members to build further momentum to advance this work.”
